Jenny McCarthy Admits 'I'm a Hypocrite' Over Hillary Clinton Gay Joke

Jenny McCarthy has written an "essay" addressing her recent comments on the View in which she insinuated that Hillary Clinton is a lesbian.

McCarthy writes about one specific incident, in which she made a joke about how "Bill [Clinton] has girlfriends and so does Hillary [Clinton]." After the audience laughed and moved on, the conversation turned and the hosts began discussing how a female CEO wouldn't help out other women.

"I stated that we women need to look out for one another. That we need to stop ripping on each other and empower one another. This is something that is very important to me and I hold so close to my heart. That night, as I lay in bed and reflected on my day, I realized I was a hypocrite. How could I make a joke like that and then five minutes later preach about female empowerment? It makes me sad when I see women ripping on other women, and there I was making a joke about our possible first female president!"
